133 Dickens Drive – Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This is a 1969-built single-family home with 1,312 sq ft of living space on a 5,902 sq ft lot, located on Dickens Drive in the Westwood area of Winnipeg. The property sits slightly below the street average for living area and lot size, but holds an exceptionally strong position for its build year—ranked 1st out of 70 homes on the street and in the top 8% within the community. Its assessed tax value of $378,000 is below the street average but aligns closely with Westwood and city-wide medians.

The appeal here is not about standout square footage or land. Instead, it’s a solidly mid-range home in a stable, established neighbourhood, with one clear advantage: newer construction relative to nearby homes. For buyers who value a well-maintained house from the late 1960s over one from the early 1960s—especially if systems and structure have been updated—this may represent better long-term reliability than nearby older stock. The lot is modest but functional, and the property avoids being either oversized or undersized for the area.

This home would suit buyers looking for a straightforward, no-surprises entry into Westwood—particularly first-time buyers or small families who want a house that holds its own in comparisons without being the cheapest or most expensive option on the street. It’s less suited for someone seeking a renovation project, a premium lot, or a home that stands out in terms of size.


Five Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home compare to others on Dickens Drive?
It’s slightly smaller than the street average of 1,445 sq ft and sits on a lot that’s also a bit below the average of 6,225 sq ft. The assessed value is below the $410,000 street average, but the home is newer than nearly every other house on the street—ranked 1st by build year.

2. Is the assessed value of $378,000 a concern for resale?
Not necessarily. Being below the street average suggests the home may be priced more conservatively than some neighbours. This can actually help attract buyers who want to avoid overpaying for a comparable property in the same area.

3. What’s the neighbourhood like in Westwood?
Westwood is a mid-century suburban area with a mix of post-war and 1960s homes. The community average assessment is around $392,000, and homes here are generally similar in size and age. It’s a practical, family-oriented area without the premium pricing of more central or newer developments.

4. Should I be concerned about the 5,902 sq ft lot?
Only if you want a large yard. The lot is close to the street average and slightly below the Westwood average. For most buyers, it’s adequate for a garden, small playset, or patio. It won’t feel cramped, but it also won’t offer extra space for expansion.

5. What makes the 1969 build year significant?
On Dickens Drive, this is the newest home by a noticeable margin. Across Westwood and the city, it’s still above average. Newer construction can mean fewer major repairs if the home has been maintained, and it may have better insulation, wiring, or foundation work than homes built 5–10 years earlier in the same area.
